I hava a Ubuntu disc, and I can't install it because the hard drive is broken. However, when I click the Try Ubuntu button I only get the desktop background and a mouse cursor, nothing else, so I can't do anything and need to reboot.
The only thing I can do is open firefox by clicking the release notes link in the Try/Install window. However, I need to install something from the internet (only temperarily), and I have downloaded it and installed it with the software centre, however I can't open it. Is there any way to get into a terminal or anything, so I can do stuff?
